Exclamation urgent help needed for exhaust cutting.

I am currently at meineke and I need to know what I need to be aware of before I get my exhaust shortened. The reason for me shortening it is bcause the exhaust rubs a little to the left on the JDM rear bumper. Current exhaust is GReddy Comp Ti-C. I was also thinking of just moving the hangers around and reweld instead. What do you guys think? What do i need to be aware of if i decide to cut it?

they work on 1984 toyota camrys and such all day. Do you really trust them with your expensive after market exhaust. Just saying, rather trust someone who has detailed knowledge on your car instead of some $10/hr employee.

Move and reweld the hangers. Don't go through all of the cutting and welding of the exhaust.
